1بعد هذا نظرت واذا باب مفتوح في السماء والصوت الاول الذي سمعته كبوق يتكلم معي قائلا اصعد الى هنا فأريك ما لا بدّ ان يصير بعد هذا.
1After these things I looked and saw a door opened in heaven, and the first voice that I heard, like a trumpet speaking with me, was one saying, “Come up here, and I will show you the things which must happen after this.”
2وللوقت صرت في الروح واذا عرش موضوع في السماء وعلى العرش جالس.
2Immediately I was in the Spirit. Behold, there was a throne set in heaven, and one sitting on the throne
3وكان الجالس في المنظر شبه حجر اليشب والعقيق وقوس قزح حول العرش في المنظر شبه الزمرد.
3that looked like a jasper stone and a sardius. There was a rainbow around the throne, like an emerald to look at.
4وحول العرش اربعة وعشرون عرشا. ورأيت على العروش اربعة وعشرين شيخا جالسين متسربلين بثياب بيض وعلى رؤوسهم اكاليل من ذهب.
4Around the throne were twenty-four thrones. On the thrones were twenty-four elders sitting, dressed in white garments, with crowns of gold on their heads.
5ومن العرش يخرج بروق ورعود واصوات. وامام العرش سبعة مصابيح نار متّقدة هي سبعة ارواح الله.
5Out of the throne proceed lightnings, sounds, and thunders. There were seven lamps of fire burning before his throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.
6وقدّام العرش بحر زجاج شبه البلور. وفي وسط العرش وحول العرش اربعة حيوانات مملوءة عيونا من قدام ومن وراء.
6Before the throne was something like a sea of glass, similar to crystal. In the midst of the throne, and around the throne were four living creatures full of eyes before and behind.
7والحيوان الاول شبه اسد والحيوان الثاني شبه عجل والحيوان الثالث له وجه مثل وجه انسان والحيوان الرابع شبه نسر طائر.
7The first creature was like a lion, and the second creature like a calf, and the third creature had a face like a man, and the fourth was like a flying eagle.
8والاربعة الحيوانات لكل واحد منها ستة اجنحة حولها ومن داخل مملوءة عيونا ولا تزال نهارا وليلا قائلة قدوس قدوس قدوس الرب الاله القادر على كل شيء الذي كان والكائن والذي يأتي.
8The four living creatures, each one of them having six wings, are full of eyes around and within. They have no rest day and night, saying, “Holy, holy, holy Hodges/Farstad MT reads “holy” 9 times instead of 3. is the Lord God, the Almighty, who was and who is and who is to come!”
9وحينما تعطي الحيوانات مجدا وكرامة وشكرا للجالس على العرش الحي الى ابد الآبدين
9When the living creatures give glory, honor, and thanks to him who sits on the throne, to him who lives forever and ever,
10يخرّ الاربعة والعشرون شيخا قدام الجالس على العرش ويسجدون للحي الى ابد الآبدين ويطرحون اكاليلهم امام العرش قائلين
10the twenty-four elders fall down before him who sits on the throne, and worship him who lives forever and ever, and throw their crowns before the throne, saying,
11انت مستحق ايها الرب ان تأخذ المجد والكرامة والقدرة لانك انت خلقت كل الاشياء وهي بارادتك كائنة وخلقت
11“Worthy are you, our Lord and God, the Holy One, TR omits “and God, the Holy One,” to receive the glory, the honor, and the power, for you created all things, and because of your desire they existed, and were created!”
